An easy way to build Kubernetes with GPU Support ?
So its been a busy couple of weeks, with writing up and collating information for my first Post Graduate Review (PGR) and actually being going to Bangor for training seminars, but more on that in a few weeks or so when all the sessions are completed ! Today I’d like to focus on a new […]
And now for something different..
Whilst last weeks post was all about attending a conference, this weeks post is about things I am doing ready for the upcoming Histocrypt at Oxford and Bletchley. I’d like to take a different approach and introduce some of the programs and videos I’ve been watching. Codebreaker: The Alan Turing Story This is a gem […]
QCTiP24 – Edinburgh
Pre-talk prep Ahead of going to to the talks I made a list of the specific talks I wanted to got and the related papers, I also bought several books (which will be in a separate posting) on the fundamentals of Quantum Computing. I found the following video accessible and succinct in understanding more about […]
From Quantum to Pi’s – its all there !
So its been a little while since my last post, just simply with work, research and life taking over. Yes there was some downtime as well, seeing the excellent Truck Fighters in London with my son was time well spent ! Outside of work and having fun, I’ve been very busy on the research front, […]
G Scholar notifications, GNU Radio 3.10+HackRF+ osmocom
Google Scholar – Notification of research I like to review at least 2 – 3 publications per week from Google Scholar – a nifty way to receive automatic notifications is to use the ‘create alert’ tool. Firstly, goto Google Scholar and enter the search term, in my case, cryptanalysis. I set my sort ‘by date’ […]
Its a marathon.. not a sprint !
Doing a PhD (or any level of study) requires good time management, and lets face it, that can be exceedingly difficult when you may be in the same position as myself, in running your own business (even basic administration tasks take time), servicing clients from that business and dealing with spikes in workload, then there […]
A trip to Bangor and Lab Updates
As a first year post-graduate research student, we have to present our work. As I only started in October, my findings, whilst limited, did give me the opportunity to explain my work and also get to present in person in front of other academics, which was a great experience. All the presentations where very interesting […]
Lab Progress
Having had a very busy back to my regular job as a DevOps consultant as well completing my presentation slides, it was time for some much needed time away with my good lady. We stayed in a local hotel and thoroughly enjoyed our time together – away from the distractions of work and studies it […]
Lab Updates
With the lab taking on its setup into a known configuration, I set about making it tidier. Not only does this look good aesthetically, it reduces the risk of damage and issues coming about if it was freely moveable. I use Nagios to monitor my servers, and setup a new group for the raspberry pi’s. […]
Ethical approval
With my research proposal being around cryptanalysis, there is potential for it to illegal or not suitable for research. With this my supervisor and I reached out to the research ethics member for Cyber Security. I had to complete a form providing details of my research and explain the lab environment of where the data […]
